Abstract

According to one embodiment, a memory system includes nonvolatile memory including a plurality of memory areas and a memory controller. A read operation includes a first operation of reading data from a memory cell array and a second operation of transmitting at least a part of the read data to the memory controller. The memory controller determines, when executing the read operation in a first memory area and a second memory area in parallel, priorities of the second operation in the first memory area and the second operation in the second memory area based on a result of comparison between (A) a first total time period of the read operation in the first memory area and (B) a second total time of the read operation in the second memory area.
